Physician-led research

Physician-led research refers to studies and investigations initiated and directed by medical doctors to improve healthcare practices and outcomes. Physicians leverage their clinical experience and expertise to identify important questions, design studies, and analyze results. This research can lead to better treatments, improved patient care, and new medical insights. Unlike traditional academic research, which may be more theoretical, physician-led research is grounded in real-world medical practices, ensuring that findings are relevant and applicable to patient care. Ultimately, it aims to bridge the gap between clinical practice and scientific knowledge for the benefit of patients and healthcare systems.
